Understanding scan to PC options
To change the options for the scan to PC Profile, you must click the 
Quick Setup
 box, and select 
Custom
. Quick Setup lets 
you select preset formats or customize your scan job settings. You can select:
Format Type:
 Sets the output (PDF, TIFF, or JPEG) for the scanned image.
PDF
 output is a single file.
TIFF
 output is a single file. If Multi-page TIFF is turned off in the Configuration menu, then TIFF saves one page 
each in a series of files.
JPEG
 saves one page in each file. When multiple pages are scanned, the output will be a series of files.
Compression:
 Sets the compression format used to compress the scanned output file.
Default Content:
 Tells the MFP the original document type. Choose from Text, Text/Photo, or Photo. Content affects the 
quality and size of your scanned file.
Text:
 Emphasizes sharp, black, high-resolution text against a clean, white background.
Text/Photo: 
Used when the original documents are a mixture of text and graphics or pictures.
Photo:
 Tells the scanner to pay extra attention to graphics and pictures. This setting takes longer to scan but 
emphasizes a reproduction of the full dynamic range of tones in the original document. This increases the amount 
of information saved.
Color:
 Tells the MFP the color of the original documents. You can select Gray, BW (Black and White), or Color.
Original Size:
 Opens a field where you can select the size of the document you are going to scan.
Orientation:
 Tells the MFP whether the original document is portrait or landscape and then changes the Sides and Binding 
settings to match the original document orientation.
Duplex:
 Tells the MFP if your original document is simplex (printed on one side) or duplex (printed on both sides). This lets 
the scanner know what needs to be scanned for inclusion in the e-mail.
Darkness:
 Adjusts how light or dark your scanned documents will turn out.
Resolution:
 Adjusts the output quality of your file. Increasing the image resolution increases the file size and the time 
needed to scan your original document. Image resolution can be decreased to reduce the file size.
Advanced Imaging: 
Select
 
this feature to adjust Background Removal, Contrast, and Shadow Detail before you scan the 
document.
